Hey blog readers,
Yesterday, my family and I picked a child to sponsor from www.compassioninternation.com and we picked a 5 year old boy from Dominican Republic. His name is Nelfali and he is a orphan living with his grandparents. : ( He is so cute and I can't wait to get his picture in the mail and write him a letter to tell him about my family! I am so happy there are programs like Compassion International so we in America don't lose sight of God's little children. To think that every night 1/3 of the world goes to bed starving is just so sad and it brings joy to my heart to know that I can play a part in helping less and less of that 1/3 go to bed hungry! I pray that more people will sponsor those little children. Thankfully most of them have parents but those who don't, the hurt they must feel... oh how I pray God will comfort their hearts. If you could be so good as to pray for the hungry and homeless every night before bed, that is just a special part we can play in their lives. Don't be sad because they are getting help! Right now in all of the world, there are more people becoming Christians in Africa than another other place in the world! Isn't that encouraging?!? To know that in Africa where there are the most false teachings, there is also the most converts! You just have to love how God works in mighty ways!
Well I have to go but I will definitly write more later!
Blessings and Joy be spread to you all,

We sponser a child through Compassion too. Her name is Senia and she's turning 15 next month. I'm happy we got an older girl because not only do I get someone to write to, but it's also harder for them to find people who like to sponser older kids, so it must have been a blessing to them too!

That is great Livie! When my family saw the little boy Nelfali, we just fell in love with his little face. And I am glad my family and yours can make a difference in their lives to help them with what they need.
